A day in the life.

I woke up yesterday with no plans and figured I would spend the day walking around, taking pictures for sort of mini 'Day Around Chiang Mai' blog post. I swung by some area's I frequent, and while walking around the edge of the Inner City, I stumbled upon a bunch of floats all made up of flowers, much like we would see in the Parade of Roses. Like will typically happen in Thailand for any sort of festival or special occurrence, there were stalls all over selling food and trinkets. So I meandered around for a while, eating and snapping pictures. After a few hours, I was tired, so I headed home for a nap and a shower, not necessarily in that order. I walked over to Julia's side of town and we headed out to get dinner. On our way there, we passed a park and could see something big going on, which happened to be a Thai car show. I mean, America cars, but Thai's showing them off. Even had a bunch of sweet bikes and a few Thai biker gangs! (I was going to snap some pics but didn't want to get in trouble with any of the local ruffians.) We weren't in the mood for Thai food, so we actually went to a restaurant that only served salads. And I ate one. Then hung at Julia's for a while and headed home. Hopefully the pictures do a better job showing you about my day than I can, just wanted to set the stage for what you are going to see! Enjoy: Chiang Mai Flower Festival

PS Heading to bed early tonight, going to try to get up early for the game. I found a bar that is showing it, but 6am is early.

PPS, While walking to Julia's at night, I passed through one of the bigger squares in town where they were having a big celebration, and I finally learned all the floats I saw earlier in the day were for the Chiang Mai Flower Festival. Anyways, they had a stage set up and maybe the cutest girl ever singing. :)
